The Artful Alphabet Kim Votruba-Matook

Through educational art, guiding copy, and use of inspirational quotes, The Artful Alphabet illuminates and showcases how small things - from apricots to marbles to zippers - can and should give us pause in our busy days and bring the focus back to our relationships with the present moment, the world in which we live, and each other. The Artful Alphabet is also intended to serve as affirmation that everyone has a unique perspective and story to tell. Everyone should be confident that their experience and connection with the world is enough and absolutely worth sharing, especially with the next generation. It is paramount that families authentically connect with eye contact, conversation, and shared experience. Art infused with educational content can inspire this; it can provide myriad perspectives and interpretations, while sparking storytelling, curiosity, and wonder for the world.
